• TEGAN MCKEOWN

  Thu 26 Oct 2017

  We are very proud of P4 pupil Tegan McKeown, who has been growing her hair so she can donate 15 inches to The Little Princess Trust to make wigs for children who have lost hair through illness.  It costs £350 to make one wig and Tegan is hoping to raise £700. 

  Please support Tegan by following the link to her "Just Giving" page and make a donation.

• ORCHESTRA

  Tue 24 Oct 2017
  On Thursday 19th October the Orchestra travelled to the Ulster Hall to attend a special performance by the Ulster Orchestra.  The concert was called "Travel Through Time" and allowed the children to experience a professional orchestral performance as well as teaching them interesting facts about the various musical eras.  The children really enjoyed the energy of the conductor and they were given the opportunity to conduct the Wallace and Gromit theme.  It was also vey encouraging for the children to watch professional musicians perform on their instruments.  We look forward to attending a similar performance in the near future.
